I think only Americans like announcing they are Americans. Working with tourists in Europe spotting Americans was easy because the first thing they would say is “hello, I’m from America”, or “I’m from Califooornia”

Never had this happen with any other nationality.

I didn’t know it either

Sorry, but I don’t think what you said is correct. People love supporting others and it happens all the time to many creators. Sorry your experience was negative.

It’s possible, but they have to implement the paywall or ad revenue by themselves. They are allowed to monetize, but it’s not necessarily trivial or even profitable, at this point.

The issue is that nebula doesn’t offer the community aspect that YouTube offers

What will it take to make PeerTube relevant enough that people will creat content and follow creatos on the fediverse?

On Reddit, yes. Here, I don’t know. But I wonder if it’s possible to ensure that the fediverse stays humans only. Maybe by Introducing a captcha of sorts like 4chan.
